Letter from Dad

Hello Annie Girl,

I am so excited about the new and white field you are heading out to harvest. You are going to love it! As I read your last letter, I noticed a lump in my throat and my eyes getting very moist. I was so excited to hear how you and your comp took the inspired challenge to commit someone to baptism. One every day! Way to be Sister Coon! I love your attitude, faith, obedience and love you have for the Savior. 

I am sorry to have missed your phone call last night. I know it was a very busy day and your superb letter made up for it. 

Did we tell you the missionaries came over last week for dinner and gave a good message? While we were eating, I asked what they were going to challenge us with. I said hey, why don't we call Kevin and Jen down the street and ask if you can share a scripture with them on the doorstep. Jen is going through challenges with alcohol. Kevin said they would take a raincheck. Oh well, we will follow up. 

Utah has received the most snow on record. 700" at Snowbird. We have been praying for moisture, now everyone is saying no more. We are fickle people. I was supposed to fly last Wednesday but the plane turned back to the gate with technical difficulties. Hannah and I will try again this Wednesday evening. Laurie and Marty were to fly home from Ut last Sunday but the plane was delayed until today. Allegiant is truly a discount airline. 

Sunday, in our Come Follow Me discussion, we asked how our personal soil is doing. Are we continuing to prepare it well for the Savior's seed of faith? Hannah said she is reading and praying more. We are committed to reading every night before prayers. I took some seeds and planted them with the Sunbeams. That was cute!

I better get back to work. I love you and live the mission life again through you. Such a great time of life. God is good, He loves all of his children and you are one of His chosen daughters. 

I love you,

Dad
